It's me your host, Charity Jones, on my first solo episode. I have been losing sleep over piloting my own plan of care and being a patient advocate for myself throughout this heart journey. I have been missing the stage and miss being creative, so I took to my own mic and it feels so good!

I hope you will join me and if not, this was more for my mental health anyway. Cheers!

Sometimes you just need a lean on a friend. Solo episode about my ongoing heart journey coming soon.
